Extension Data Manager functions
The APIs in this section comprise the Extension Data Manager (EDM). You can programmatically access and
manipulate the data that is contained in the group and participant files by calling these functions. The EDM performs
in the following manner:
• The EDM performs all EDML file input/output for group and participant files.
• The EDM acts as a server model filter by performing all data requests for the current server model.
